It doesn't seem fair that you get to complain about your relationship problems to me, and I can't even tell you how lonely I really am.

It wasn't even a good lie.
I expected so much more from you, clever girl.
But it was good enough to break my heart.
Because you were the one I went to when he lied to me.
When I was crying too hard to speak, you were there.
And now I don't have to worry about pushing out the words,
Because there's nobody to tell.

another day i go unnoticed
and hating you is my painkiller
but he loves you
and i love him
so how long can i numb the pain?

I love making you laugh
and my heart flutters when you smile
but then you turn around
and share it
with her

i cry myself to sleep all the time
and not even my phone wants to talk to me when i'm lonely
my sister got an iphone and all i got was a box of chocolates and i am having a really bad night and i cannot stop crying

him
memories keep flickering back to me like flames licking the corners of my mind and burning their way in
when i slipped my plastic ring onto your long finger and you asked me if we were married
we could be i told you, and you smiled and twirled it around and wore it all day
and you offered to buy me food but when i turned you down you held out your own so i could have a bite
today you waved at me in the hall and i don't think i've ever been happier than when my fingers fluttered back

If I can't even write poetry anymore,
what's the point of feeling this sad?

I joke a lot, but lately it seems like crying
is the only thing I'm good at.

I don't understand why we fall in love,
but never land
what do you do when you can't stop thinking about a boy who never thinks about you?

some nights i'm sure that if i don't have you i'll die
but most nights i'd rather do both

it's not that i'm jealous
i'm happy for you
100%
but i think you're a little too happy
for yourself

Who Am I?
Molly Rosen Apr 2013
I'm just a girl who asks a thousand questions a day
A girl who sits for hours and ponders the rain
I'm a girl who will spend a year thinking about friendship
And a lifetime thinking about love

Yup, just hit a new low.
Just like every other night this year.
So when do I hit the bottom so I can have a break from breaking for
just
one
second?

I wanted to write a love poem.
No.
I wanted to write our love poem.
I wanted us to have a great story.
But we don't.
Our story is just a girl, who likes a boy,
loves a boy.
And a boy who won't look twice.

i know that i'm privileged
and in the grand scheme of things i have no reason to be depressed
but my calls for help go unanswered
and i'm just so lonely i could die

i didn't come right out and say that i need you
but i never do
but what i did say
should have been enough
because it doesn't have to be about you
again

so maybe i have given up
who are you to judge?
because it's your fault

i'm usually sad
but i go through the motions
smiling
laughing
so even when i want to die
i can smile
and nobody knows
that anything is wrong

And just like that,
2 seconds,
2 names,
and I can see it.
My hopes,
Dreams,
Crumbling around me.
So go ahead and tell me I did my best,
Even though that makes me think-
Why wasn't my best good enough?

your friend is hot.
Molly Rosen Apr 2013
sometimes i feel like i'm trying the hardest
but i'm the only one being left behind
like everyone else will be married and happy
and i'll still be alone
watching people i love go
and letting them
too scared to stop it
to change my own fate
because if somebody can love them then maybe
someday
somebody can love me
but they don't
and so i spend another day
and then another night
alone
wondering why my phone doesn't ring
why i'm not the one with a hundred invitations
and even more exes?
why is everyone else so happy
when i'm always so sad?
i guess looks are everything
aren't they?

You realize that even a smile from you would make my day,
Right?

And it's not even that I'm sad sometimes
It's constant
An aching in my head
Making me feel
Feel alone in a crowd
And hated by a friend
And the things that once brought me joy
Are buried under the dust of the sadness
Because I won't bring them out anymore
Now all they do is remind me
Remind me of the past
When I was happy sometimes
But never always

I'll smile at anything,
But nothing makes me happy anymore.
I'm just afraid to show how I feel,
Because being weak might scare you away,
And you're all I have left.

sorry i'm crying again
i just forgot that you hate me
and accidentally got my hopes up
for a second

so all this time i meant nothing to you
even when you were telling me everything?
i guess i was just ears to you
all that time
but i still want you to know that to me
you were always more

the people I love most in the world can leave me
And that scares me
because i have nothing to stop them from going

talking to you is hard
because you judge what i say
and i always think i sound dumb
no matter how often you call me
and you're perfect
and i'm just not

you don't realize how much your words can hurt
not the ones you say to me
but the ones you don't
or worse
the ones you say
to someone else

If you ever feel ugly
Remember that he loves you
Sure, you don't love him
You know I do
But what does it matter?
He always gets what he wants
